I use water. Basically your trying to lubricate your sand paper and lather
up what you are sanding. I've used the finish itself for "wet" sanding but
I've found water will work just as well (and is less mess fwiw). Oh, use
wet (black color) paper. The brown stuff self destructs when wet.

Water or mineral spirits. I always like to lubricate some 4/0 steel wool
with Johnson's paste wax and then buff with an old T-shirt.
